So here we are a year later and it's my turn to purchase a new mower.My last mower finally quit on me after 23 years of service (it was a Toro). Does any one know what the CR recommendations are for this years models?thanks,Jeff

Honda is still the king. They rank Toro as "recommended" as well but their repair rate according to the CR numbers is 17% as opposed to Hondas 12% for self-propelled.

Thanks for the information, I think I will look at only the multi-speed models to start and if I don't find anything to my liking then look at simpler machines. My yard is relatively flat so I'm thinking rear wheel drive versus front wheel drive?I like the idea of electric start so the blade stop is of no interest./Jeff
